Chansky Early Tomato
The second variety to ripen in our 2019 grow-outs, this basket variety is eye catching and tasty too! Short, determinate plants hold on to every bloom, making them very prolific. , These are pretty unique looking. I definitely had my eyes on them all summer long! Though perfect for baskets, we grew ours in the ground. Because of their short height and sprawling habit, that presented some challenges but we were able to make it work. Plants are not more than 18 inches tall. They produce plenty slightly egg shaped cherry fruits, that are whiteish when green. They turn into a mild red when fully ripened. Balanced flavor, great for an early tomato. Snacking, canning, salads and more. Worth my while! Get your baskets ready! Novelty! -

Kenneth's Piennolo Tomato
There's a lot that I can say about Kenneth's Piennolo tomato. For one, skinny potato leafed plants are very hardy. Another thing is that these start ripening relatively early in the season. Continuing on, these have very good, sweet flavor and make great garden snacks. Perhaps the most outstanding quality of this variety is that it has exceptional shelf life. Here's my story. I hadn't realized that I left some of these in a plastic shopping bag on the south side of my house. About 6 weeks later when I was doing some cleaning, I discovered the bag and opened it up. Every tomato was in excellent shape! This, to me, took this tomato from a good tomato to an excellent variety for storing, especially after the season has ended. It makes great sauce and is even great when dehydrated. Cooking, salsas and more will all benefit from Kenneth's Piennolo. Give these a try.!! -
An unbelievably tasty slicer that is packed with juice and true tomato old fashioned flavors. Novosadski Jabucar tomato is a winner through and through.

Sprinkle in your soups.. WoWWW!!

Out of stockEarthy, sweetish, rich and tasty is how I would describe Sweet Tooth Tomato. Indeterminate, wispy leafed plants need early staking. Sweet Tooth is a good producer of 2.5 inch long fruits that are multipurpose. I used some for fresh salsa, dehydrating, salads, sauce and fresh eating. In each situation it preformed very well. I especially loved them on a plate, when sliced up with other varieties. Their colors, in and out, really came through then! Our plants showed good disease resistance all the way until season's end. Sweet tooth is also not a very seedy variety. I liked that too!

If you are like canning, Eros tomato is certainly a nice selection for this purpose. Eros is a yellow elongated variety, that can reach 3 inches long. Determinate plants produce generous amounts of tomatoes that can be used for several purposes, including canning, sauce and paste. We dehydrated some of these and that worked out well also. I found Eros to be a good cooking tomato, imparting it's milder, tomatoey flavor in our meals, but without overwhelming it. Plants are not big or sprawling. They produced and performed well in hotter and dryer weather too. Stake early. Vines are skinny and will to hold up for long, without it.

Out of stockWhether you have grown dwarf varieties before or not, you will appreciate them when you grow out Dwarf Black Angus Tomato. This very tasty variety did well for us in our 2018 grow-outs. 2.5 feet tall, indeterminate rugose leafed plants, produced 6-8 ounce tomatoes that had very nice flavor and texture. Plants have dense foliage, so it can sometimes be difficult to see fruits. Without hurting the suckers, we pruned some of the bottom leaves to better see fruits. That worked well! Our fruits reminded me of Black Krim, but with a firmer texture. Very good sandwich tomato and more! Expect first ripened fruits about 75 days after transplant.

Waltham Butternut Squash
I love Butternut Squash so much! This year, I was fortunate to have a patch of these. I harvested tons and tons. Presently in my basement there are at least enough to last me through the winter. I am looking forward to making winter dishes. I especially love them oven baked, wrapped in foil, with good butter and a touch of sugar salt and black pepper.

Just a few vines will give you enough food for many months! Some fruits can get pretty large! -

Gandolf tomato is a taller dwarf plant that has a vine habit. It produces some of the prettiest bi-color, red and yellow, blunt heart-shaped tomatoes.

Coeur de Surpriz Tomato
One of my biggest regrets in 2019 is that I didn't grow enough Coeur de Surpriz tomato plants. I grew out 4 plants and 3 of them were drowned in the flood waters in mid-June. When the remaining plant finally started ripening its fruits, I was amazed at how beautiful they were. Not wanting to eat many, in order to maximize my seed count, I tried a few. Then a few more, and more. Eventually I only saved fruits from half of the plant. These were sweet and fruity with a little tang. Very good little tomato! Bi-colored outside and out. Good choice for fresh eating, salads, garnish, dehydrating, fresh salsa, canning and more. Nice all purpose variety. Might I say again, very, very good! -
